Subject: Lyrics quiz, different spin of what we do now..

Written By: ChuckyG on 11/03/05 at 1:19 pm

I was thinking of maybe a new type of quiz, where instead of guessing the performer, you're given a performer and 4 lyrics and you have to pick the lyrics the performer actually performed.

Not sure if I should take an existing line, and scramble it three different ways or just pick lyrics from three other performers.

So let's try this both ways:

Performer is Madonna, she sang one of these, other people sang the other lines (all from real songs):

A) Girls don't like boys, girls like cars and money
B) Some boys romance, some boys slow dance
C) Boys and girls, They dance like it's the end of the world
D) Boys, Sometimes a girl just needs one

Performer is Aerosmith, song is Dude Looks Like a Lady, one of these is correct (hard to believe):

A) Her picture greased the grime on the floor
B) Her picture graced the grime on the door
C) Her picture faced the line on the door
D) Her face grabed the time on the floor

Which is tougher?  Which would you prefer?

I see the second example has possibilities all from the same song (I guess the first example has different songs). Yeah, probably the second idea would do, since you have to pick the "correct" lyric. (For the record, I'm fairly certain that "B" is the correct answer.)
